Teri Williams, a spokeswoman for Pirozzi, said the chef is developing new concepts that are slated to open later this year in Orange County. Pirozzi, a native of Naples, developed Alessa’s menu from recipes taught to him by his grandmother. After debuting Alessa in Newport Beach, Pirozzi opened the next one in Huntington Beach in May 2009 and the Laguna location in November 2010.
